Ile events which have the 20th inst. These rapers are more ityport ar g for what they do not contain than for what .hey do. The Moniteur, of which we have a regular series to the 16th, still preseryes the most inflexible silence respelling the affairs of Spain. The Spanish Pa per which is published at Paris, called LA'beja Espanola, is not more communicative upon the sub jed. The silence of these Papers is the most de cisive proof of the disastrous state of the French affairs in Spain. A circumstance has beet) stated with some eonfi deuce, which, if well founded, though 'apparently trifling in itself, is important as an indication of what is likely to happen on the Continent.--It is said, that LUCIEN BUONAPARTM has actually made application to Mr. HILL, the British Envoy to the King of Sardinia, for passports for himself and his family, to enable them to proceed, without interrup tion from this country, to the United States of Ame rica. An article in a Foreign Paper lately an nounced that he had quitted Rome, and that it was not known to what place he was gone. LUCIEN BUONAPARTE has always been considered as the wisest member of his family; and the firmness with which he has preferred the security of a private sta tion to the instability of a Throne, to which, his bros ther would have raised him, is a proof .of that good , sense which has been ascribed to him.—As there is ' reason to believe that he has really requested a pass port, in order to find an asylum for himself and fa mily •. in the American States, it is plain that he • thinks the conduct of his brother is likely to bring destruction upon his head, and that all his connec tions might be involved in the common rum. It is well known that LUCIEN BUONAPARTE has often at tempted to check the career of his brother's ambi tion, and to induce him to adopt measures calculated rather to confirm his porwer than to extend it, No thing, however, could lessen the pride of the Usur per, and he has proceeded, step by step, to insult and oppress other States, till he has at length induced all mankind to look with anxiety for the death or overthrow of a man, who, while he lives, and pos sesses so much power, will never cease to be the general distu r b er of o all Europe. It is, therefore, by jilt wonderful, that LUCIEN, with his charac t'rlsttc prudence, should wish to secure a retreat in tiees',.and his application to the British Envoy for that purpose may fairly be considered as some indication of - the declining fortune of his brother. Indeed, the 'glorious stand which has been made in Spain, might well alarm any man whose situation, in a great mea sure, depended on the fate of the French Usurper, since it seems to be the signal of revolt to every State over which his ty:anny extends, or that might be apprehensive of falling into his grasp. It waa pre.- bable, that if he had been successful in Spain, his ambition would, if possible, have been increased ; at least his power would be so much augmented, that every other Government would be menaced with subversion ; but as Providence has interposed to frustrate his atrocious designs upon that Country; he may be thought to have reached the zenith of his fortunes; and, if the people of other States should emulate .the condud of the gallant Spaniards, it would not be surprizing if his downward course were to be much more rapid than his wonderful as cent. Nor will the removal of LUCIEN, if it should take place, be an unimportant fact in the eyes of all the people of the Continent, as it would contribute to dispose them to expea the downfall of the Tyrant, and animate them in the attempt to accelerate so desirable an. event. • Even the rumour of such an intention will not be with out efie6t, as it will serve to shew that if the Usurper himself is too much intoxicated with power to set bounds to his ambition, his family begin to take the alarm, and he may at last be reminded of the homely proverb, that rats run from a falling house." Blit LUCIEN BUONAPARTE may not only be alarmed by, the failure of the Tyrant in Spain, but also by the movements of Ausn ia, with the probable concur rence of Russia, which cannot be so besotten as to remain at peace with the man who has treated the credulous CHARLES IV. and his family with so mucet baseness and treachery. Upon. the whole, we con sider this application of the Usurper's brother, as a very interesting fad by itself, and in Conjunc tion with other circumstances, as portentous of an event that will give tranquillity to Europe, and hap piness to all mankind. A report is In circulation that a fishing smack had arrived at Mount's Bay, the Master of which re :ported his having spoken a King's Critter at sea, from Lisbon, charged with most important intern lence.

In this capital, left it again two days after on her way to Vontain ,7 bleau. It is rumoured that she is going tojOin her,: Royal Consort. We understand that theorioung, . •i Princes, sons of his Majesty the King "OrlX9ples, left town yesterday to proceed to Naples. t AMSTERDAM, Aug. lg.—According to Jettersre- .:, ceived from Nimes, the last fair at Beaucaise turned out uncommonly good;' of colonial commo dities there was not one moiety of last year's supply at sale, and this scarcity was the cause why the sal . -- 1 , thereof was postponed till the end of the fair. `:.;The" articles which fetched the most advantageous prices' - were wool, coarse woollens, leather, iron, and4u ber. Soap has considerably risen in price. Aloliey' , ` was not scarce, and yet the payments proceeded' rather slowly, yet they were made, and much less protests for non-payment occurred than last year . All colonial produce was sold at high prices, almost as soon as the sale thereof was begun. PARIS, AUG. 13.--By an Imperial Decree of the 22d July,' it has been resolved to make a high road leading straight from Paris to Madrid, by Pau, Ole ron,, and Saragossa, to throw a wooden bridge over the Adour, near the village of Osne, between Bayonne and Pau, to restore the bridge over the Nive, in the district of Combo, in the department of the Lower Pyrenees, to construct another bridge across the Gave, and to improve the road which leads to the watering place called Eaux Bonnet. HANIEURGH, AUG. 12.—The day before yester day, Baron ROSENKRANTZ, Royal Danish Lord of the Bed-chamber, arrived here, on his return fron? Bayonne and Paris, and proceeded yesterday of - his return to Copenhagen, by the way of Kiel. 0;)e - of the subjeas of his mission was to convey to his.Nia jesty the Emperor the insignia of the Order of the Elephant. PARIS . , AUG. 1 y..-A deputation, sent to his Ma- ; je , 4ty by the• Government of the Seven Islands, h'as just arrived in this City. It is composed of Messrs.. SCORDILLI, MELICHI, METAXA, SICURO, and VA- . LORITI. These Deputies are waiting the return of his Imperial Majesty, to present to him the homage of fidelity and love of all the inhabitants ofthe Seven Islands. We understand that a new Department is to be formed, under the name of the Department of Tarn Aveyron, of which Moniauhon is to be the Capital. The Legislative Body is not likely to meet until the month of O&ober. ANGUS, AUG . . 12.—Their Imperial and Royal Majesties arrived here yesterday at ten in the even uaq frem Names to this city, they were received in every town and every village under triumphant arches, and with acclamations of all the inhabitants, who had assembled in multitudes to enjoy the - happiness Of seeing their Sovereign. The day elapsed • in expe&ation, but it was restored to us by a general illumination ; the streets through which their Majes ties passed in the way to the Hotel of the Prefeeture, were ornamented with garlands and carpets, and re sounded with the acclamations of an immense teal- 1 titude. To-day, at ten o'clock, his Majesty the Emperor and King received the Members of the different Authorities. He interrogated them with resped to all their several interests, and leirned from their own' mouths wh4t happiness, what mild tranquillity, have succeeded the evils of which his reign has . scarcely left us the remembrance. At noon their Majesties again mounted their car• riages, accompanied by the benedictions, and fol lowed by the vows of a faithful and grateful people. [There. are several other similar articles in these Papers relative to the journey Of BUONAPARTL thro;lgh different places, 4s Nantes, stc.] VIENNA, JULY 30.—Great preparations are mak- ing in Hungary for the approaching meeting of the Diet. Every where dispatches are appointed, and instru6tions drawn up, in order that they may only ad conformably to them. The Chief of the Department of the Police, M. DB SUMM;;IIMAN, -has resigned his employment, on account of the bad state of his health. The organization of the National Guard being completed in the German Provinces of the Austrian States, the exercises are about to begin. We are assured, hut in a vague manner, it is true, that a part of the Austrian-Cordon'on the frontiers of Turkey have received orders to remove from the frontiers and approach the interior of Hungary. The intelligence received - from the Russian Army in Wallachia and Moldat. , ia is the same as it has been for genie time. Every thing there is quiet, and there is no reason to expea a renewal of hosti lities. The General in Chief, Prince DE PROW gOWSKI, has finished the tour he was making in Bes. sarabia, to inspect the right wing of his army; he ; - - IS expected shortly in Wallachia. General MILLO-• RADOWICH still commands in the latter province. The present situation of Servia is represented as extremely critical. That Province continues to want provisions, .and several other objects of 'tlie first necessity ; for ;;Ithough exi i ,ortation was per' mitted in Austria, it has. been hid under several re' strielions. Direct advices from CorWantillople state, that the Fleet of the Capitan Podia has not sailed for the Archipelago; for it having been ascertained that the -apposed English Squadron which appeared copsiste ti :;poly of a few Frigates, without one single Ship_of tbe Line, the Divan /Ad not think it proper to send oat ,the grand Fleet in pursuit of the Squadron ; ale)" only detached scime Frigates and Corvettes to observe tbe motions of the English, and free the Archipelagg from .the numerous pirates which have for soof time infested it. These pitates all carry the Malteo ~a,nd Sicilian, or English Flag, are very numerous og Salonichi, in order to take the Merchant's Vessel/ which go in and come out of that port.

Mr. PARSONS, the King's Messenger, is under orders to set oil at a moment's notice, on a foreign journey. I s ' On Thursday a Cabinet Council sat at the FO' reign Office from two till half past five o'clock.' The great majority of Members were present. The Spanish Deputies have audiences almost da il y of Mr.. Secretary CANNING. Yesterday they o ry tamed in conversation together for nearly the la c° ct , four hours: We have seen a Letter from Rochefort, of the gth, instant, from the most respetiable q u arte r, whic h says, that several petitions were presented by the : , Merchants of that place to BUONAPARTE, ! recent visit, praying that .the embargo mtgbt be taken off Netilri+l Ships. His answer was, that he could not give them a decisive answer till he ba l- * fak.9., the advice of his Council ; but that it was possible, the time was at no great distance wher , he wonki**permit them to renew their intercourse even with-Ergland. L. , The narrow part of the Channel, along logne and Calais continues to be greatly annoye d by French Privateers, which take every opportir pity of wind and weather to slip out, in qPec tag lion of picking up something. They are 1 1° 4 however, so successful as they were some ticsic ago, as there are some light vessels stationed, Dover Roads, to watch their motions.
